My husband Jim and I ( and our cat, Chica) live in tiny (Pop. 77) Round Top, Texas, just about halfway between Austin and Houston. But we are worlds away from those
2 fast-paced cities, and enjoy our little bit of heaven in the quiet Texas countryside. My glass studio is in our garage, along with Jim's centrifugal caster and buffer, and our combined jewelry workroom is in the house.
I make the glass beads most days from about 9 AM to
2 PM. Each bead goes into the kiln after it is made, and is annealed overnight. Since I don't see the finished beads until early the next day, every morning after bead making is like Christmas! I create finished jewelry in the afternoons, combining my beads with other accent beads and findings. Jim, a metalsmith, contributes pendants and beads that I also use. Look at my photo albums to see how lampworked glass beads are made.
Visitors are welcome to visit our studio. Just call ahead for an appointment to make sure we're home, as we might be out of town selling at an art show (see Show Schedule).
